In this episode, I read to you part of an article about accessibility. I also caught you up on Microsoft who appears to have big plans (if the Activision Blizzard acquirement goes through). Eurogamer had an interview with Rod Fergusson and Joe Shely.
Blizzard has specs for the Open Beta for PC, Xbox, and Playstation. Adam Fletcher wrote a lot about queues and server disconnects (in the first beta). I also read you articles from Seasoned Gaming, IGN, and Wowhead. Adam Fletcher also wrote about what to expect in the Open Beta.
